Eric,
Does your AFM have the capacitor modification?

Subject: [VANAGON] throttle flat spot

Hello

1983 vanagon 1.9l waterboxer

I thought it was the rpm limiter kicking in, but it happens on the highway
too.  It varies with throttle position and speeds.  It is most noticable on
the highway in forth gear around 55-60mph, but is still variable.  It cuts
out, but if I apply more or less gas pedal it stops.

Any testing advice would be appreciated, I am thinking AFM sweepers, but am
new to the digijet fuel control system.

Thanks

Eric
